Bible Discussion Thread

60 plus years ago i sat in a kinder garden Sunday school at a baptist, one of the lessons that i remember was the story of david and goliath in those days they used the felt board and taught the lessons, from that day forward david became my favorite bible story and person, through out my life i studied the psalms alot,i learned that david was a man after God's own heart,and that he made some serious mistakes [sins] in his life, and he suffered dearly for his sin with another man's wife, and for numbering the people, but david was a type of CHRIST HIS LINAGE FATHER,Jesus the son of David,he wrote many psalms about The Lord Jesus in the spirit of prophecy, he was hated for his stand for the Lord, it started with his brothers,and then King Saul full of envy and hate, if you study the life of david you will see that most of his life he lived in danger of his life and there was a lot of personal suffering, but through it all The God of Israel protected him, God's hand was on him and many enemies found out to there demise it could not be taken off, in the case of Bathsheba he used his power wrong, in the life of david we see hope for serious failure, and the ruin of many who when way out of there way to destroy him, its dangerous to touch God's servant.
